So as it snows here on the east coast, I've begun looking forward to spring training. I love it, you start looking at what your team has done in the offseason and you see some of the top players in the farm start to make a name for themselves...

You know, I have a lot of respect for Pittsburgh Pirates fans. I really do. They have had nothing to be happy about for the past 17 years. The pitching has been awful, offense mediocre, and front-office moves questionable...

On Friday, the Marlins announced that Dolphin Stadium will now be known as LandShark Stadium. This comes off of the Marlins business relationship with singer Jimmy Buffet, who owns a brand of beer call LandShark Lager...

Here are the big games on tap for the day. Home teams are in bold.Kansas City vs. L.A. AngelsI have now made it illegal to miss a Zack Greinke game. How can you see that he is scheduled to pitch and choose not to watch it...

So, this may or may not be news to you, but Manny Ramirez has been suspended by MLB for violating the drug policy. CSN took this opportunity to catch up with Manny's former team, the Boston Red Sox, to get their opinion on the situation...

Ok so if you didn't hear yet, the Arizona Diamondbacks released Bob Melvin from his position as manager. And they also announced their new choice as manager, in a move that I'm sure was clear- and level-headed...

First Pitch is going to be a recap of the some of the games from the previous day, including highlights. The home team is in bold.Tampa Bay 6—Boston 2Justin Masterson was making his third start on the season, filling in for Daisuke Matsuzaka...

I'm going to level here, I really don't like ranking all the teams. It just seems overdone and hack. Also, one mistake can ruin it for the team, so right now I am going to start with the top ten pitchers for the past week...

I will start this preview by stating the obvious: The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim will be the AL West champions. They are one of the few teams that have absolute control of their domination by using a combination of minor league depth and money...

When you look at the American league this year, it's hard to predict which team will claim any of the divisions. All of these teams have amazing talent on them, which is good. American League East I cannot wait to see this battle get underway...

The Tampa Bay Rays have arrived. After years of being the AL's whipping boys, all of the time spent on development has paid off. This is a solid team, with great young pitching. The offense is also solid, and they have made the AL East that much tougher.

Donovan McNabb has been saying all week that he wants a new contract, and wants to retire an Eagle. He doesn't deserve anything. What has he done for the team lately? Yes, he took them to five NFC Championships...

I have never been a fan of how these MLB awards are dished out. I consider myself a member of the media (not because I write here), and I honestly could never imagine being qualified enough to be a deciding person of who deserves what...

It's finally here. The big one. The World Series. For true baseball fans, such as myself, this could be one of the best series played. The upstart Tampa Bay Rays going against the never-say-die Philadelphia Phillies...

What a game. In game one of Boston and LA's ALDS, the Red Sox win 4-1 putting their 8 regular season losses to the Angels behind them. I was pretty shocked at how little of a fight the Halos put up, and how dominant Lester was...
